Ever seen these?
What do these three cars have in common?
A quite detailed answer will be appreciated.

Experts, have at it! (old Autopuzzles saying)
Is it that they all stem from the same original car, the Glasspar G2?
I know that's not a detailed answer, but if I'm on the right track I can take it from there...

No connection with the Glasspar, sorry.
All these cars are Lancers, made by Eric Irwin in the early 1950's.
This picture is taken from a brochure he produced and show (from left to right) the Series 1, 3 and 2 cars.
He also made a 4th series, not shown here, and there might even be more!
Not a great deal is documented about these cars but certainly at least one still exists!
A series 2 Lancer appeared in the film 'Johnnie Dark'.
Lancers are some of the very earliest production fiberglass cars made.
I have tried to delete this post as it was just a repeat of the above post somehow but the Delete button has vanished with the changes!!
We had that 4th series car a while ago, though not particularly mentioned...

Yes, I think it was one of mine actually!
The one I mean was one of PJ's.

My NEH 551 was a Lancer, but not any of the cars pictured in this puzzle.
A search by me doesn't reveal a Lancer posted by PJ in the Solved section...
I don't know if I'm allowed to reveal it...
this one?
Sure!
Then we have all of the 4 series....(and a solved puzzle?)

Your NEH 551 was the Lancer 1, the same car as the one on the left of my picture. But on yours it had a bumper, on mine it doesn't.
Another pic of this pretty car.
